Parking is horrible in the streets, and the car park itself is small at £15 per day pricey. Walk to beach is why we stay here, staff are all young but very polite. Building was once grand, a little jaded now, but clean and tidy, we have been regulars for s verbal years now.

Loved this hotel. The location was great. The price was good. The staff was friendly. And it was clean, they took care of us. I would 100% stay here again. I would say there should be some upgrades made to the tv to be bigger, a more comfortable mattress, and if there was a way to make the floors less squeaky that’d be great. But overall it was a great stay.

We have stayed many times at the Durley Dean Hotel as we know exactly where we are in relation to the beach, buses and restaurants. All of which are in close walking distance. The steam room is excellent and there is also a sauna and small indoor pool. Spa facilities are available. The decor is a bit tired but we are not too concerned about that as we are out most of the day. The food in the restaurant is very good and the staff are very friendly.

From arriving and having the most helpful receptionist was a great start. The room was lovely and clean as was the bathroom. The sauna and steam room were so relaxing along with a swim in the pool. The location is great and close to the beach.

Nice but small pool, whilst it catered for a couple of people as soon as it became busy the pool area quickly became overcrowded. The restaurant used for breakfast was large with ample seating, although this made breakfast very busy and often had to wait for food items to arrive.
